Recording date: December 16, 2020

Guests: Jo McVey, London and Julie Butters, Cork

Synopsis: It’s double the fun as we talk with veteran English Language Teachers Jo McVey and Julie Butters. We discuss their different career paths in English Language Teaching. We explore the delayed emotional toll many teachers faced after the rapid transition to online teaching and the road back to Wellness during the continued lockdowns.  We also chat about the good and bad of academic language training and the future of the English Language Teaching industry.
